The Navy needs higher standards...

A conversation with NavyGuy this morning...

Setting: The breakfast room at our hotel. NavyGuy is eating an English muffin.

NavyGuy: I can't get this blueberry jam packet open.

Mugs: Eh?

NavyGuy: This little jam packet - there's no way to open it!

NavyGuy holds up packet for me to see.

Mugs: Uh...

NavyGuy: Oh, wait, here's the flap...

Mugs (shaking my head in horror/disbelief): Wow.

NavyGuy (with a shit-ass grin on his face): And they're gonna let me fly a a $68 million dollar airplane!
